Yang Kaiwen was selected by Zhong Wutao, who personally trained him and sent him to study abroad. He is considered his confidant.
Otherwise, I wouldn't trust him to do such an important thing alone.
"Also, to avoid being discovered by them, don't get too close to us in the future."
Yang Kaiwen was just about to sit down and have a sip of tea, but when he heard Zhong Wutao's words, he could only stand up and nod with a smile.
"I understand, Mr. Zhong, I will pay attention to it."
"I'm going to find Nada now and make sure I complete the task you assigned me."
"Please pay more attention to my affairs."
"That Zhou Tianjiao has returned to the bank and is targeting me."
"If you fire me from Metropolitan Bank now, I won't be able to help you in the future even if I want to."
These words were meant to flatter Zhong Wutao and also to remind him.
Now they are on the same boat. If anything happens to him, Zhong Wutao will not benefit from it.
"Humph, a cripple is worth all your trouble?"
"Okay, get out!"
Zhong Wutao stood up and walked out. Yang Kaiwen followed him out without saying anything else.
While no one was paying attention, he sneaked out through the back door.
In the hotel lobby, Li Genshen was wearing a black suit and his hair was combed sleekly.
Holding a wine glass, he was walking among the guests with a smile on his face, looking very proud.
Some comrades who returned from other places do not know what has happened recently in the capital.
I only heard that Li Genshen married the granddaughter of the Zhong family, who is said to be almost two generations younger than him.
He had to drag Li Genshen over for a few drinks and share his experience.
"Old Li, it still has to be you!"
"Are you considered to be in good health despite being old? Hahahaha."
"If you ask me, is my sister-in-law already pregnant? Is she going to give birth to a child in your old age? Hehehe."
A hint of fear flashed in Li Genshen's eyes, and he quickly looked back.
I haven’t heard that Liu Hongxia is pregnant. If she is, we don’t know whose baby it is!
At this moment, Zhong Wen supported Liu Hongxia, who had been coaxed out with great difficulty, and asked her to come over to entertain the guests with Li Genshen.
Li Genshen's comrades were far away and could only see Liu Hongxia's back, so they asked out of curiosity.
"Old Li, that's my sister-in-law?"
Li Genshen came back to his senses, nodded, and called Liu Hongxia with a smile.
"Xia Xia, come and meet my good brothers."
Liu Hongxia stamped her feet, turned her head reluctantly and looked at Li Genshen.
"Didn't you see my skirt was so long? Didn't you come over and help me? You're such a tactless person."
With so many guests present, Liu Hongxia didn't give Li Genshen any face at all.
When Li Genshen's comrades heard Liu Hongxia's tone, they changed their envy and looked at Li Genshen with some sympathy.
"Here I come."
Li Genshen knew Liu Hongxia's temper and didn't care.
He also did not forget to explain it to his comrades.
"She's just young and childish. I'll go help her over to say hello and have a drink with you."
Several comrades nodded awkwardly and watched Li Genshen run over.
I don’t know what Liu Hongxia said again, but Li Genshen nodded and bowed and said something in a humbly voice.
Immediately, Liu Hongxia grabbed Li Genshen's ear.
Li Genshen actually endured it all. After Liu Hongxia had vented her anger, he ran behind her like a grandson and held up the hem of her skirt.
That scene made some old comrades stunned, and some of them couldn't help but mutter.
"This isn't about finding a wife, this is about finding an ancestor, right?"
"That's right. When he married into the Gu family, I heard they didn't even have a wedding. The girl from the Gu family could understand."
"If this guy were to change, I don't know what kind of chaos would happen!"
"Oh, if you ask me, it was his own choice. He can't blame anyone."
As they were talking, Liu Hongxia had already come to the table in high heels.
He crossed his arms over his chest, his eyes almost popping up to the sky.
"Just you guys, and you want me to toast?"
Although she was wearing a veil, from a close distance, one could still vaguely see the scars on her face through the veil.
Several people were so frightened that they forgot to speak for a moment.
Liu Hongxia didn't get a response, so she lowered her eyes in dissatisfaction.
A cold snort came from his nose.
"Don't you even take a look at whether you are worthy or not?"
"It's a courtesy to let you meet me."
"Don't even think about offering me a toast. You haven't tried the food here, have you?"
"Have a good meal, otherwise you won't have another chance later..."
After saying that, she raised her head high, turned and left.
At this moment, Zhong Wutao also came down. Liu Hongxia went straight to Zhong Wutao and let Zhong Wutao take her to greet other familiar people.
There was finally a hint of smile on his face.
When Li Genshen's comrades saw this, they knew there was nothing they didn't understand.
His face immediately turned pale and he put down his wine glass.
"Well, they only look up to the sky, how could they look down on us?"
"We are marrying above our station. We can't afford this wedding wine. Let's go."
"That's right. Although our family isn't the richest, we can still afford this meal. Here's the money."
Several comrades took out money and put it on the table, then walked out angrily.
Li Genshen was busy adjusting Liu Hongxia's skirt and was a little far away, so he didn't hear clearly what Liu Hongxia said.
Later, Liu Hongxia went to Zhong Wutao's place, but he was busy entertaining them and didn't pay attention to his comrades' table.
When I came to my senses, I saw that my comrade's table was empty.
The relatives and friends he invited to the other tables also left early.
What doesn't he understand? Everyone has been offended.
While Zhong Wutao was talking to someone, he carefully pulled Liu Hongxia's hand.
"What's going on? What did you just say to them? Why, everyone's left?"
Liu Hongxia looked impatient and slapped Li Genshen's hand away.
"Don't touch me, disgusting."
"Just leave if you want to. They're just a bunch of country people. I can smell their poverty from a long way off."
"Giving them a feast is already good enough, but they still want me to toast? Why don't you even take a piss and look in the mirror?"
When Li Genshen heard this, he gritted his teeth in anger.
"They all came from all over to attend the wedding banquet, and they were so exhausted that they didn't even have time to clean up."
"From now on, these are all connections. You've offended them all now. I..."
snap
Liu Hongxia slapped Li Genshen without any hesitation.
"Who are you yelling at? I won't get married."
This slap really stunned Li Genshen.
Not to mention that he is older than Liu Hongxia, at least he holds some position in the army.
He was slapped in front of so many people. Doesn't he have any shame?
For a moment, the hotel lobby was silent.
The look he gave Li Genshen was filled with pity, sarcasm, and more of ridicule.
Do you think it's so easy to climb the high branch of the Zhong family? They all saw what happened to Liu Min back then!
No, Li Genshen's fate will be even worse than Liu Min's...
